Last Q I hope. Unable to delete a folder due to permissions.

Hi AGAIN!

Isn't moving stuff across between PC's fun?

I have managed to copy some stuff into a tolder I created on my new
Vista ultimate desktop. If I try to access anything inside it I get
the error...

"You don't currently have permission to access this folder".

If I try to delete it I get...

"You need permission to perform this action"

So, where can I set, change or get the permissions, please? The word
"currently" in the error message hints that the permissions can be
had, if only I knew how. Sigh.

Again.... MANY thanks.
 
Hi,
Right-click the folder, choose Properties> Security tab. Give yourself
permission to Modify, read, write, etc.

Hope this helps,
